The two protocols used to apply configuration changes on a Cisco IOS XE device are:
RESTCONF: A REST-like protocol used for accessing data defined in YANG, using the datastore concepts defined in NETCONF. It allows the application of configurations and retrieval of state information using HTTP methods.
NETCONF: A protocol defined to manage configurations and monitor devices. It uses remote procedure calls (RPCs) to apply changes in a structured data format defined by YANG.
